Tell Walmart to Stop Rape and Torture of Young Women in its Factories

Please tell Wal-Mart, Hanes, Target, Macy’s, Lands’ End, Kohl’s and Jones Group to immediately end the sexual abuse, rape, torture, and beatings of young women guest workers at the Classic factory in Jordan.

We demand that the companies:

1)  Immediately remove all serial rapists, especially Anil Santha and Priyantha, from the Classic factory;

2)  Pay significant compensation to the rape victims for the damages done them;

3)  Ensure that independent and highly respected non-governmental women’s rights organizations from Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have complete access to monitor factory conditions;

4)  Guarantee that there will be no retaliation against any worker for speaking the truth about factory conditions;

5)  Ensure that the false charges against the internationally respected human rights advocate, Mr. Rafiq Alam, must be immediately dropped;

6)  If Classic refuses to strictly enforce the worker’s rights laws in the U.S.-Jordan Free Trade Agreement, their sweatshop garments should be prohibited from entering the U.S.
